Free Version is ok. Paid Version is crap
posexpertsSeptember 8, 2016
Pros
Paid version - nothing
Cons
On the paid version: -hard to install and keep it running for remote access -no management console or method of organizing computers -passwords are not masked
Summary
Free version works ok. Don't waste your money on the paid version. Go to Teamviewer and spend the money for a decent product. Don't make the mistake that I did. Site refuses to honor money back gaurantee
Works Like a Charm
Jen SainOctober 29, 2014
Pros
The software is simple and to the point, works great. We use it to help other people remotely, in most cases these are our known clients. The process to handle a screen sharing session cannot be easier as far as I can see. You share screen and you give password to someone to view. Its unfortunate that some users abuse it for calling other people. All the review related to calling are not the software's fault, ShowMyPC infact has a support team that is really helpful, and they did hear our feedback of putting warning on the website while downloading the software.
Cons
Could use adding more feature, but a 2MB exe doing the whole sharing is in fact pretty cool.
Summary
Overall a great software, very useful website. All I have to say, keep the good work up.
Works great!

Pros
The tool meets my small business needs perfectly, allowing me to conduct meetings and provide remote support. The simplicity and ease of use make work a breeze. I specially appreciate the HTML Viewer which makes running meetings quick and seamless.
Cons
Free version has limitations on session length.
Summary
Well suited for anyone looking for a quick and easy meeting solution.
They claim to be whoever they want. System Mechanic 4me
who63October 16, 2013
Pros
None. These people are after your money, anyway they can get it. By Hook, or by crook. They say they are from any company they "Know you'll believe".. Never, never go to any site they tell you to go to, & Hang up on them.
Cons
They are Cons! I don't know where they got my information. But with what they knew about my Iolo System Mechanic Subscription, I'm guessing someone from Iolo is selling customer data. They knew my phone number, full name, my subscription end date. I'm a computer tech myself, so the 1st time they called from 323-257-8886, then 303-351-5184, then yesterday (10.15.13) again 303-357-5178. Do Not go to the website they give you! I went just that far this time because I wanted to know, where the www would take me (STUPID!) Just by going there, He was able to put a folder with all kinds of activeX files, & I'm now getting a DOS window popping up every-time I turn my PC on, but i can't catch what it is. I GOT WORK TO DO NOW! I'm angry
Summary
I called iolo twice, because i knew the calls were fishy. I've used the program for years, & Never got these calls. Both times, the Tech said, "We do not call customers for any reason". OH.. the excuse was, "They were watching my PC from the Iolo server, & could see Errors, & wanted to remotely connect to fix it. The first time, the website was a Adware, maleware program site, but I didn't write it down. Yesterday, it was showmypc.com. Someone within Iolo is selling Customer information, & or, they've been hacked. I just shut my auto renew off with system mechanic, & calling all my customers i can remember who bought it on my word. I'm not saying System Mechanic itself did anything, but until I said to them yesterday, "I was no longer recommending their software to customers, family & friends until I knew this was fixed, & I was not renewing when my subscription ended." Thats the 1st time the guy said, "He'd contact their fraud dept, & report it."<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Oct 16, 2013<p/>Whether it works or not, turn them in anyways! If I could get to "New Deli, India", where everyone showmypc.com said they were calling from. Their heavy accents convinced me. AND, further more, I found out System Mechanic "Real Tech Support" is out of New Deli India. I'm done with System Mechanic. If i can't understand the tech support persons broken English, then what good are they to us customers.
Please read how this tool is abused by hackers.

Pros
showmypc.com.
Cons
2 people called me on my house phone, told me they were from Windows Microsoft, that I had error report going to Microsoft from my computer and they went into my computer remotely and told me they could fix. They said my Windows warrantee had expired and wanted to sell me a 1yr for 25$ more yrs. more money. I told them I would have to check it out. Less than 10 min passed and another call. That's when they said my computer was crashing. I told them it was covered by insurance, they hung up. I did lose a few programs but nothing I can't live without. These people had external access to my computer. First thing I had to do was press windows icon on keyboard and letter r at same time it took me to a website called showmypc.com. Were these people really representing Windows- Microsoft? If not who should I report it to? They also originally gave me a call back number in case I changed my mind. 1800-651-2595 but was told it would then cost me 125.00.
Summary
callers informed me windows warantee expired, said my computer was about to crash and they controlled my computer externally, some icons started to disappear on desktop. I turned computer off.
Very slow screen refresh
JesperBimmerJune 10, 2013
Pros
Based on TightVNC
Cons
No problems with connection between computers but slow screen refresh :-( especially compared to the other, such as teamviewer.
Summary
An unprofessional solution built on top of TightVNC, If you try ShowMyPc.com then remember there are NO refund.
Works like magic
samrat331September 5, 2011
Pros
Showmypc works like a charm. I have been a long time user and used it over many different networks. It just gets the job done to connect you to remote users.
Cons
Free version does not save private Ssh information but we got the trial of the private version.
Summary
exceptional product and a very helpful staff Worked with us to build an inhouse setup for us.
Quick and easy
jansitraJuly 6, 2011
Pros
Good to use software. I use it daily for our general office meetings. Very light weight and easy to use.
Cons
cant really think of any
Summary
Great for meetings. Free to use.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Jul 6, 2011<p/>The new features like web based chat, password free meetings are really useful we have paid for a premium version and it just cannot get more easier to conduct our office meeting. The part I love is the meeting room that can always stay on from our private website.
beware, they make it very difficult to cancel
simugoobMay 12, 2011
Pros
cheaper then gotomypc, but has file transfer that free logmein doesn't have
Cons
simple signup, try to cancel and you'll have to jump through hoops,make phone calls to their 3rd party credit card billing service etc. Sleeze operation thinks that making it hard for customers to cancel is good business strategy...it isn't
Summary
STAY AWAY, BETTER TO USE AN EXPENSIVE SERVICE LIKE GOTOMYPC which is one click to cancel, or just use the free Logmein sevice!
Showmypc to remote viewer does not work.
kverhageApril 30, 2010
Pros
Looks simple to use.
Cons
Doesn't work. It just hangs there and the troubleshooting page just says to go to another computer. How many computers do they think I have?
Summary
Nice idea but failed in execution.
